While Sonia didn't go into a whole lot of deep details about her and her sister's suffering in the camps, she does give a glimpse into what did happen to all of them while enslaved in the 5 different camps, and of the fear, sickness and heartache knowing that the world did not care as the Jewish population was being wiped off the face of the earth.

The liberation of her last camp is very touching and the caring of the soldiers towards them is truly memorable.

Everyone should read this. It is a beautiful tribute to her family and to the Jewish people, and to the fact that the Jewish people ARE God's chosen ones.

If anyone is interested, Jan Markell sells a book ono her web site that is very good, also. It is called Trapped in Hitler's Hell written by Anita Dittman with Jan Markell. Anita is also a Holocaust survivor and a Christian now.

As I read todays letter, tears stream down my face. How can human beings treat others like this? How can man become this depraved?? Why didnt someone come to the Jews rescue sooner? I am upset to hear that the USA turned Jews away. It breaks my heart to know that our own nation was caused the Jews more suffering and death. God forgive us.

Maybe know would be a really good time to explain which political power in the USA forbade the Jews admission.
As I recall, Roosevelt and the Democrats were in complete control of our political system. They were also responsible for the Concentration Camps for the Japanese, only we didn't slaughter them. They did lose everything they owned prior to internment, though, and never got it back.
Democrats are good at enslavement, whether by welfare or refusing to admit bonafide' immigrants.
They only want the ones who will vote for them.
I find it strange now that most Jews vote Democrat, considering the past.

Many years ago I was working in a store. The young clerk working with me helped an older gentleman with a purchase and directions to the freeway. Then she asked me why a person would tattoo a number on their arm. I asked if the number was crudely done and she said yes. I told her that he was probably a Jew who had survived the Nazi concentration camps. She asked me what a concentration camp was. It turned out that she knew absolutely nothing about the Holocaust.
No wonder that there is such a disconnect about the Middle East conflict around Israel. No one bothers with teaching and learning history!
